Master No. 175 bypass problems

Postby Mathias » 21 Aug 2011 23:11

Okay so I got a 175 (well it is a 178) but they look to be the same thing just the 178 seems a bit smaller and is black but back to the point the reason I wanted it was because I had seen a lot of people showing how easy they are to bypass and I got it first try so I thought it was like everyone said until I locked it and tried to open it again and then for another 20 minutes and nothing. I am doing what people say to do but I don't feel the fingers that come down from the main plate that locks it and I have tried to push down but nothing happens and lets just say it is really getting to me that this lock that should be very easy is turning out to be very hard to pop open. I was just hoping someone could maybe tell me what I should do with the hook inside the lock or if someone could watch a few of the youtube videos and tell me if there is something the guys in the video aren't saying.
